Fifteen-year-old New Yorker Daisy thinks she knows all about love, or rather the lack of it. Her mother died giving birth to her, and now her dad has sent her away for the summer, to live on a farm in the English countryside with cousins she's never even met. As Daisy's feelings for her cousin Edmond grow, her world is suddenly turned upside down as an unnamed aggressor attacks and occupies England. When soldiers take over the farm, the girls are separated from the boys, and Daisy must fight to keep herself and her youngest cousin, Piper, alive. Winner of the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize. CONTAINS SOME ADULT THEMES.
